6 Configuration
3. A window opens. Depending on which card is used, select the entry IBS
PCI SC/RI-I-T or IBS PCI SC/RI-LK and confirm with OK. The entry is in-
serted in the tree structure.
4. Open the tree structure as far as possible. Right-click on INTERBUS and
select Add… from the context menu. The DTM Selection window is
opened.
5. Select the device used and confirm with OK. The device is inserted in the
tree structure.
6. If necessary, repeat steps 4 and 5 for further devices.
Example INTERBUS slave configuration with SVC file:
One bus device has 16 inputs and outputs, another has 48 inputs and outputs.
These inputs and outputs are found at a specific address:
 16 inputs at byte 896 (slave ring)
 16 outputs at byte 896 (slave ring)
The slave card creates the following image:
The image must be replicated in WorkVisual (>>> Fig. 6-5 ).
To ensure that the structure of the Interbus is read correctly, an offset of 896
must be entered so that the precise addresses of the inputs and outputs are
located at the right place in the image (>>> 6.5.5 "Setting an offset" Page 33).
Alternatively, placeholders can be inserted. Since the creation of the image for
the slave ring only starts at 896 bytes, a corresponding number of placehold-
ers must be inserted. In this case, the following message placeholders have
been inserted:
 160 inputs and outputs (44x)
 128 inputs and outputs (1x)
Only the device description files “KUKA Proxy” can be used as placeholders
in the slave ring.
The generic DTMs “KUKA Slave Proxy” from KUKA must be used for
the slave configuration.
The smallest possible memory unit is 2 bytes. A memory of 2 bytes is
created in the image for 8 inputs and/or outputs.
